The owner has cleverly integrated a contemporary feel into The Grange with the considered use of colour and textured paper in key locations around the property. Lifting the home out of the ordinary and giving it a modern update, the fusion between the decades is much to be admired.

Converting the lower ground floor was a brilliant opportunity to add valuable additional space and as our photographs demonstrate the new-style basement is no longer simply overspill space but a beautifully designed, light-filled, health suite, with gymnasium, shower/wet room, bathroom and sauna alongside the luxury laundry room. The gymnasium could be easily converted back to a double bedroom.

Maintained to an exceptionally high standard, The Grange sits in just over an acre of gardens, that are mostly lawn to the front elevation and incorporate a sweeping driveway and large double garage to the rear with electric doors. To the side, a covered seating area perfectly offers shelter on those inclement days. Yorkshire stone retained from the refurbishment has been utilised in creating a flagged seating arena and pathways connecting the rear to the front and leading to a timber shed for garden storage. Offering handsome drama to the setting, The Grange sits within the confines of a centuries old rock face which they have highlighted with ambient lighting.
